Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation in the atmosphere is currently often modeled using a multiple lumped “two-product” (N · 2p) approach. The N · 2p approach neglects: 1) variation of activity coefficient (ζi) values and mean molecular weight MW in the particulate matter (PM) phase; 2) water uptake into the PM; and 3) the possibility of phase separation in the PM. This study considers the...

BACKGROUND Bisphosphonates have profound effects on bone physiology, and could modify the process of metastasis. We undertook collaborative meta-analyses to clarify the risks and benefits of adjuvant bisphosphonate treatment in breast cancer. METHODS We sought individual patient data from all unconfounded trials in early breast cancer that randomised between bisphosphonate and control. Primar...

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate cassava (Manihot esculenta) crop yield, as well soil density and carbon content, under no tillage conventional cultivation, in rotation with palisade grass (Urochloa brizantha) subjected grazing. Treatments consisted cultivated follows: after 2 (CC-2P) 4 (CC-4P) years pasture; no-tillage (NTC-2P) (NTC-4P) perennial pasture (PP) grass. CC-2P tr...

To search for new candidates of the true and simultaneous two-proton ($2p$) radioactivity, $2p$ decay energies (\textit{Q}$_{2p}$) are extracted by Weizs\"{a}cker-Skyrme-4 (WS4) model, finite-range droplet model (FRDM), Kourra-Tachibaba-Uno-Yamada (KTUY) Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov mean-field with BSk29 Skyrme interaction (HFB29). Then, radioactivity half-lives calculated within generalized liquid ...

In this work, we systematically study the two-proton($2p$) radioactivity half-lives using two-potential approach while nuclear potential is obtained by Skyrme-Hartree-Fock with Skyrme effective interaction of {SLy8}. For true $2p$ radioactivity($Q_{2p}$ $>$ 0 and $Q_p$ $< $0, where $Q_{2p}$ are released energy one-proton two-proton radioactivity), standard deviation between experimental our the...

due to its simplicity radix-2 is a popular algorithm to implement fast fourier transform. radix - 2 p algorithms have the same order of computational complexity as higher radices algorithms, but still retain the simplicity of radix-2 . by defining a new concept, twiddle factor template , in this paper we propose a method for exact calculation of multiplicative complexity for radix-2 p algorithm...

Resonant photoemission spectra of the O 2p-derived valence band of insulating ThO2 are compared to linear muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) density-of-state (DOS) and XPS intensity calculations. At Th 5d corelevel threshold energies (85 ~< hv <<. 120eV), resonance is greatest at the bottom of the O 2p band where calculated p/d hybrid states are greatest; p / f hybrid content is weak by comparison. We c...

We thank Dr Olschewski and colleagues for their interest in our article, and we appreciate their recapitulation of 2 key findings of our work: (1) the identification of increased atrial K 2P 3.1 (TASK-1) K channel expression, I K2P3.1 upregulation, and action potential shortening as substrate in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation (AF); and (2) the presentation of K 2P 3.1 current inhibit...
